Real Sociedad vs Celta Vigo — Tips & Analysis

Real Sociedad -0.5: Celta cannot score right now. They have one goal in three league games and sit 17th with a single point. Their centre forward Borja Iglesias is out with a muscle injury, so Ferran Jutgla leads the line on his own. Sociedad are not flying either, with 2 wins in their last 13. They did find something in their last game, a home win over Espanyol. They score more than a goal a game, and Anoeta is where they are at their best. Across the last 20 meetings with Celta they have won 11. Celta are much better away from home than at it. On the road they have 2 wins, 2 ties and 3 losses, and let in just over a goal a game. That is the part that makes this closer than the table says. The bigger warning is at the other end. Sociedad have let in a goal in each of their last ten games, with no clean sheet in that whole run. Both teams are also missing players. Sociedad are without Pablo Marin and Alvaro Odriozola. A 2-1 is the shape we see. Sociedad take control and get two goals, then have to hold on after Celta pull one back. Sociedad have won by 2 or more goals only once in their last 13, so expect a nervy finish. We are still with the home side to come through.
